Icecream Birthday

Well, summer is in full swing, which always makes me think of icecream! A very special little girl is turning 3 this weekend, and I decided she should have a 3-scoop icecream card! This card was very simple to make, I did it on my lap (my craft desk was full) in about 10 minutes. The base of the card is Lovely Lilac. The Whisper White layer was scored on all edges about about 1/4" to have that raised edge. Added pink eyelets to the corners. The icecream scoops are the round scallop punch, with all but 6 of the scallops cut off and rounded. The bottom scalloped edges are sponged in same color for texture. The cone is Creamy Caramel. It's a piece about 3" long by 1 1/4" wide. Simply cut from top outside to bottom middle on both sides for the cone. That is scored to make the texture as well, and sponged with CC ink to pick up the lines. I really loved this card, and I hope you do too! I got the basic idea off of Splitcoast Stampers, then just made it mine.

Who am I?

My husband, Jim and I have been married for almost 12 years and have two little girls who we adore. We enjoy playing games together, going on walks, biking, going to outdoor concerts and many other things! Family time is my favorite time. I love to craft with the girls. I love to craft in general. My main love is cardmaking, however crochet just recently edged its way into my heart as well! I'm 'hooked'! I'm into organization and home decor, and you'll find some of all of that here...and more!
